Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My kindergarten students are full of energy, creativity, and imagination. Every day, we explore, learn, and create but we need the right tools to bring our ideas to life. I’m asking for essential classroom supplies like crayons, colored pencils, glue sticks, and scissors to make sure every child has what they need to learn and grow.

With these basic materials, my students will be able to participate fully in daily activities from creating colorful drawings and making alphabet books to building projects during center time.

Many families aren’t able to send school supplies, so your donation ensures that every child has access to the tools they need, every single day.

These simple supplies build fine motor skills, encourage creativity, and support academic learning. When students have what they need, they feel confident, prepared, and excited to be in school. Your generosity helps make our classroom a place where all students can succeed no matter their background.
